Writing a book is a horrible, exhausting struggle, like a long bout of some painful illness. One would never undertake such a thing if one were not driven on by some demon whom one can neither resist nor understand. – George Orwell, “Why I Write,” 1947 (Thanks, Jennifer)
I recently turned down a film that I didnt want my kids to see. Priorities shift. Sometimes Im sad about that, but not enough to do anything about it. – Dianne Wiest
